II believed that Greek and Latin

the first TO strive to get rid of them.
To get rid of them, | mean, as parts of
general education and culture they
would still remain, like the Tongues o.
the Hittlte and the Accadian, whole
some aud profitable studies for those
whose tastes led them that way. II is
because the tongues, the literature,
the history OF old Greece and
Italy are not dead, but the most
living things of their kind, that /
plead for keeping them, not in their
old place, but in a worthier place.
But they n have no worthier place at
ali as long as they are kept apart from
their fellows. as long as it is ruled that
the study of Homer Is "spoi'cd " by

r ms, the earlies. of European
gcographers, the earliest psi lter

his dignity and his value if he is not al
lowed the fellowship of his comrades.
Show that Crock and Latin learning is
a living, practical learning, the neces-
sGry foundation of all that comes after,
and Greek and Latin learning may sti'
flourish and win fresh honor. Shut it
up as something all by itself, which has
nothing in common with modern
tongues and modern life, and it will be
presently pulled down, and. do not
hesitate 10 say, justly. Writing by

wheat and the World

English Illr9s.t led Magazine.
Could imperial Rome have only
grown sufficient wheat in Italy to have
fed her legions Cesar would still be
master of three-fout,hs of the earth.
Rome thought more in her latter days
of grapes and oysters, and mullets, that
change color as they die, and singing
girls and fute-playing, and cynic
verse of Horace, anything rather than
corn. Rome is no more, and the lords
of the world are they who have mas
tership of wheat. We have the master
ship at this hour by dint of our gold and
our l00-ton guns, but they are telling
our farmers to cast aside their corn and
to grow tobacco and fruit aud anything
else that can be thought of in prefe-
renee. The gold is slipping away. These
sacks in the market, open to all to
thrust their hands in, are not sacks of
corn but of golden sovereigns, half
sovereigns, new George andthe dragon,

Here and There.

Poisonous perambulators, says the
British Medical Journal, care proba-
bly, one of the least suspected of dan
gers, yet, nevertheless, one which ex-
perience has shown to exist, and,
therefore, one against which the pa
rents of family would do well to be
on their guard. A case is recorded
this week of child, aged four months,
who, on its return after being out I'M
der hot sun, was seized with sick
ness and vomiting, the vomited matter
being green-colored fluid. From in
quines made by the medical man it
was elected that the child had been
seen to suck a green strap OF the
perambulator, and the true cause oil
the mischief was at once suspected
namely, arsenic poisoning. An ana
lytical examination of the strap con-
frmed this view, arsenic being found
to be present in great abundance. In
spite Of all that medical aid could effect
the child gradually sank from ex-
haustion."
